      And that’s why people say “universal healthcare”, not “universal chemo”

        If a group of politicians were trying to take away access to chemo specifically then I assure you people would advocate specifically for access to chemo.

        It doesn’t have to, you fucking nitwit. Chemotherapy is for the benefit of the cancer patient.

        And guess what? Everyone benefits from living in a society where everyone is able to access the medical care that they need.

        Only someone truly insane, out-of-touch, malicious, misanthropic, cynical, selfish, and short-sighted would ever ask a question like “But how do I or anyone else benefit from you receiving medical treatment?”

            Wow you’re so progressive for asking trans people to martyr themselves for the greater good /s. Would you call the LGBT community selfish for rejecting a Democrat who was willing to sacrifice gay marriage too or is this a unique view on trans rights for you?

              Not at all. Just reprioritize to focus on the fires that threaten everything, including trans acceptance and support. Anyone who focuses on lesser, personal threats, is themselves, a hazard to everyone else, and to themselves.
